The Dells Mill near Augusta, WI is celebrating its 150th anniversary as it started milling wheat for farmers in 1864. When the wheat production moved westward, the owners refitted the building to mill flour and grind mill.
Built along the dells of Bridge Creek, the base of the mill was carved into the sandstone bedrock with water turbines powering the milling process. The original log dam was replaced with a concrete dam in 1919.
The fourth generation mill owner just passed away in August of this year so the future of this beautiful old mill is in question.
